Apparently DCA, dichloroacetate, is the cure for cancer. It attacks the metabolic processes that are unique to cancer cells, which use glycolysis instead of cells' normal mitochondrial energy mechanism. The University of Alberta discovered this, rather than, I dunno, Pfizer, so therefore no one's paying any attention.

Because pharmaceutical companies aren't developing DCA, as it's not patented, consumers aren't going to see it unless people do something about it. Drug companies won't profit from curing cancer, how wonderful.

This university needs help/funding/publicity to push this medicine into the forefront of the medical community and into our homes. Drug companies aren't helping them in any way since it would cost pennies to make this medicine.

DO Something about this! Read these, and, much as I hate saying it, Tell everyone you know! This is something genuinely important, and worth asking you to spread.

I'm aware of information available to the public which also states that DCA is not ready for therapeutic use at this stage, that there have been some issues in previous trials. As I see it, this information is being presented as a safety precaution and I support research which would help underline any dangers associated with this treatment. All the same, it's still a call to do the necessary research and get this product available to people who need it.

Thx.
